Slimming by 12 hours of non-decreasing rule

The 12-hour rule can help to reduce weight. These scientifically studied diet is not really a waiver of a rule, but creates the lose weight by keeping eating times. By no means a fitness guru has devised this diet formula, but a team of researchers led by Dr. Satchidananda Panda from the Salk Institute in California. The scientists studied the effectiveness of the 12-hour rule.

Unhealthy Overweight

If you consider that Overweight or obesity disorders to health problems such as high blood pressure and an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, such as heart attack, can cause, there are indeed plenty of reasons to get rid of excess pounds. Many try to be dieting again slimmer. However, most of these methods in everyday life are not suitable, and experts argue already for years, what Form of diet is the best. A new study shows that it is not but not what is eaten but when.

Study with mice

A team of researchers led by Dr. Satchidananda Panda from the Salk Institute in California found that the body burns particularly a lot of fat and calories, if the food intake takes place only within a certain period of time. The scientists used for the study, 400 mice on different diet plans:

Some of the animals were given a fatty or sugar – and fat-rich diet. The other was a high-sugar diet administered and others were given a balanced diet, or were fed in different time Windows.

12-hour rule showing effect

It showed that those rodents that were allowed to take their food only in a time window of nine to twelve hours, were slimmer than the mice that were allowed to consume the same amount of food over 24 hours.

Even the animals that were on the weekend, 24 hours to eat during the week and returned back to a maximum of 12-hour rule, less than those who always eat. As it says in the article, the obese animals according to this principle, even.

Not every time of the day to eat suitable

The new idea is to only eat within a certain time period. For example, there are diet approaches, eat suggest only up to a certain time. In addition, dietitians stress that not every day is the suitable time to eat. If, for example, late at night, is fed, the food hard in the stomach, because this has already been switched to the sleep mode.

However, such diets should be treated with caution. Even if the calorie intake can be reduced, it remains important, what is consumed in the remaining twelve hours. By Pizza, fries and Pasta, the decline in consent could rapidly slip into an unhealthy vicious circle.

Further research is planned

That is to say, however, that, among other things, a balanced supply of vitamins must be respected. In addition, prolonged fasting can lead to difficult-to-control cravings. Furthermore, it is noted that the study results in mice are not directly transmitted to humans. Further research should therefore show, what may mean the 12-hour rule really a weight reduction in humans. (sb, ad)
